CAPT l.. G. ALDRrCH, in response to
a very complimentary call, has con-
scented to become candidate for State
Senator, for Adams county. He is a
gentleman of ability and of great public

tor. The voters of Adams are fortunate
IN having two such names as Gen. w. T.

them.

lowly Jesus, whom we adore" In other
words, prohibition-or, as you prefer to
phrase it, ''the higher law of prohibi-
tionism''-is an enemy to the spirit and
practice of true Christianity, and its ad
vocacy is compromise of ministerial
character and propriety. Certainly,
honored sir, you did not weigh carefully
those words. Have you given such spe

denominations in our country of soiling

Lcdgcr fears that Mr.. George will have to
be classed with that considerable number OF
persons ambitious TO be public teachers
WHO are men Of knowledge without wisdom.
The reason for this fear is that In his open

of his devoted and chivalrous friend, the

without particle Of good to Mr.. Georges

One Of the chiefs of the Michigan Mug
wumps gives vent to his feelings in a letter
to the New York EreHing Post. This un-'
happy man, writing from Detroit, declares
that the course Of the administration in re-.
gard to the federal offices In that district
has been "such as to give the lie to its
premises of reform and to the claims of its
stanch friends, the Mugwu nps." The
former postmaster of Detroit "was an ex-
emplary officer, as acknowledged by every.
body, irrespective Of party, excepting the
Republican campaign managers, who were
mad at him because he refused to employ
the influence OF his Office in their interests. ~
But his head came Off, and tan old Demo-
cratic war.horse, who knew nothing about
the business of his Office, received his
place. Next the collector Of internal
revenue was turned out, and "the man who
received his place was one OF the most
active wire pullers in the Democratic ranks,
and notorious for having used his position as
clerk of the superior court OF this city
for the purpose of Transforming fresh i'm
migrants into fullfedged Democratic citi-
zers." Now, the collector Of customs has
been removed, and in his place has been
appointed Mr.. d. j. Campan, "a young
man Of large fortune and social promi,
nence," of whom the Mugwumps had high
hopes. The hopes, however, have been
scattered to the four winds by the new Off.
cial's frank avowal of his purposes, in an
interview in the Detroit Free Press, In
which he says that as Democrat he shall
consider 1t duty, both to his party and to
the Office, to supply every position under
him with good Democratic official, and
that 1t will only be question of time
when such changes will be made. After
stating these sad facts, the Erening Posts
Michigan Mugwump adds that while the
Mugwumps in that state still believe in Mr..
CleyelaDd's honesty of purpose they "may
well begin to doubt his ability to carry out
his intentions" President Cleveland finds
the Muggies are hard to please, the jack
sonian Democracy still harder. The PresI.
dent may well adopt the language OF the
old song
